    • Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is a novel by Lewis Carroll that tells the story of a girl named Alice who falls through a rabbit hole into a fantastical world filled with peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. In this whimsical realm, Alice encounters a series of bizarre characters and experiences nonsensical events that challenge her understanding of reality. The narrative explores themes of identity, curiosity, and the absurdity of life, as Alice navigates through a landscape where logic is turned upside down. The story is a reflection on the nature of childhood and imagination, inviting readers to embrace the wonder and chaos of a world unbound by the rules of the ordinary. Carroll's inventive language and playful storytelling create a rich tapestry of adventure, making Alice's journey both enchanting and thought-provoking.

      Les Hauts de Hurle-Vent sont des terres balayées par les vents du nord. Une famille y vivait, heureuse, quand un jeune bohémien attira le malheur. Mr. Earnshaw avait adopté et aimé Heathcliff. Mais ses enfants l'ont méprisé. Cachant son amour pour Catherine, la fille de son bienfaiteur, Heathcliff prépare une vengeance diabolique. Il s'approprie la fortune de la famille et réduit les héritiers en esclavage. La malédiction pèsera sur toute la descendance jusqu'au jour où la fille de Catherine aimera à son tour un être misérable et fruste. Ce roman anglais, le plus célèbre du XIXe siècle à nos jours, a été écrit par une jeune fille qui vivait avec ses soeurs au milieu des landes de bruyère. Elle ne connut jamais cette passion violente ni cette haine destructrice. Elle imagina tout, même le fantôme de la femme aimée revenant tourmenter l'orgueilleux qui l'a tuée.
